Brown bedroom curtains had been a bugbear for this owner for too long. Bullied into them just a few years ago, they were still too new, too big and too expensive to justify replacement. Their ‘brown-ness’ was overwhelmingly, well, brown.

However, if fashion indicators are anything to go by, step away grey – brown is back!

The ‘slow’ fashion movement was the perfect opportunity to prove brown really does have a place in the home so with a nod to nature, some textural elements, a burst of white linen, contemporary art and the addition of inky blues and even more browns, this bedroom is now a welcoming and cocooning retreat.
